WALL MOUNTING THE THERMOSTAT
1. The wireless Thermostat must be located within 20’ of the receiver, This is proper
operational distance.
2. Remove face from backing plate as shown at the start of these instructions
then locate the (2) two holes that mount the plate to the wall.
3. Locate the (2) two mounting holes and mark the holes on the wall.
4. Use the (2) two dry wall anchors and screws ( that are supplied) to mount
the base plate to the wall as shown.
5. Thermostat can also be mounted onto an existing (Plastic) electrical box.
6. Base plate should be mounted level on the wall for best operation.
REMOTE RECEIVER
IMPORTANT: THE REMOTE RECEIVER SHOULD BE POSITIONED WHERE AMBIENT
TEMPERATURES DO NOT EXCEED 130 DEGREE F.
The remote receiver (right) operates on four 1.5V AA- size batteries (Included). It is recommended that ALKALINE
batteries be used for longer battery life and maximum microprocessor performance. IMPORTANT: New or fully
charged batteries are essential to proper operation of the remote receiver.
NOTE: The remote receiver will only respond to the transmitter when the 3-position slide button on the remote
receiver is in the REMOTE (center) position.
The remote receiver houses the microprocessor that responds to commands from the thermostat to control system
operation. The remote receiver has a 3-position slide switch (see figure at right) for selecting the mode of operation:
ON/REMOTE/OFF.
• With the slide switch in the ON position (toward the word TOP), the system will remain on until the slide switch is placed in the OFF or
REMOTE position. This manual switch will turn ON or OFF the system, without the transmitter or good batteries.
• With the slide switch in the REMOTE position (centered), the system will only operate if the remote receiver receives commands from the
thermostat. Upon initial use or after an extended period of no use the ON button must be pressed for up to five seconds.
• With the slide switch in the OFF position (away from the word TOP), the system is off.
• It is suggested that the slide switch be placed in the OFF position if you will be away from your home for an extended period of
time. If the remote receiver is mounted out of children’s reach, placing the slide switch in the OFF position also functions as a
safety “lock out” by both turning the system off and rendering the thermostat inoperative.
INSTALLATION
NOTE: When the remote receiver is installed as a wall switch, It is recommended that it be installed
in a PLASTIC switch box. Remote functions may not operate properly if the remote
receiver is installed in a steel switch box.
Make sure the remote receiver switch is in the OFF position (toward the small hole on the receiver’s face). It is recommended that 18 gauge,
stranded wires (Included) be used for wire installation between the terminal wiring block on the millivolt gas valve or electronic ignition system
and the wire terminals on the remote receiver. For best results, use 18-gauge wire that has not been spliced and measuring no longer than 20
ft.
WALL MOUNT
Install four 1.5V AA-size ALKALINE batteries (Included) in the remote receiver. For best performance,
remote receiver batteries should be factory fresh when installed. Very little battery power is required to
operate the remote receiver, but the electronics are tuned to operate best when battery output is greater
than 5.3 volts. For new AA batteries should provide an output voltage of 6.0 to 6.2 volts.
Position the remote receiver so the word TOP is facing up, then install the remote receiver into the
plastic switch box using the two long screws provided. Install the cover plate using the two short screws
provided.
Push the remote receiver slide button over the remote receiver slide switch. Reverse installation of the
slide button if it appears off center
